Sorry I was unable to make the cookout. I had brought along a friend to fish with that day with the understanding that we would attend the cookout at 6pm. After fishing the West Prong for most of the day, we decided to check out Troutfest. We had been there about 30 minutes when he received a call from his better half. After the call, he turns to me and says he has to get home...to Knoxville.
So, after a few choice words, I relented and brought him home.

Anyway, my apologies if I left anyone holding the bag for my part. I'll make it up next time.
